How a music festival “played out like a horror film”: Woodstock 99 is a documentary on the infamous 1999 festival that turned into three days of rage, raunch culture and entitlement. The documentary is part of Music Box — a collection of documentary films created by Bill Simmons exploring pivotal moments in the music world. And pivotal it was, as the festival which had encompassed ideals such as the feminist pop-culture explosion and inclusivity turned into a scene of destruction and fires. The event earned itself the infamous distinction of “the day the nineties died.” The documentary follows the festival, but also uses it as a platform to discuss the state of American youth at the end of the millennium and the cultural shift that was clearly demonstrated. The Guardian and Rolling Stone are out with reviews.
